… but first time making a podcast! This will be a ‘one man show’ so the learning curve will probably be pretty steep.

Wait, Another podcast? Why?

I know, I know… we don’t need another dude with a microphone talking on the internet. I’ll try to keep it brief.

Just trying something new.

I have always been someone that figures things out by talking about them. That process of shaping an idea, hearing it back, and re-assessing the idea, helps me understand things. And when I better understand, I can do a better job in my own work and better help others.

It’s especially important when the ideas are coming in hot, like we are seeing now with the emergence of AI into Design and Product. But I have worked remotely for a long time, and I just don’t get a chance to talk it out. You spend a lot of that time thinking, but not talking. I’m not the only one out here trying to make sense of things, so I’m sharing what I’m seeing.

We need new maps. New career ladders. New processes for efficient work. We need to know how to trust this work and this tech, and when not to. Hopefully this show can do some good for someone.
